With Christmas around the corner, Chance--a rider of the rails for twenty-five years--makes one last attempt to reunite with his family for the holidays. His son Charlie (Gerald McRaney), a single dad to two young children, has never forgiven Chance for abandoning him so long ago. But in the spirit of the season, Charlie reluctantly lets his father visit for Christmas week, and the old man wins the love of his grandchildren with his colorful tales of life as a hobo. And when father and son finally come together as family, it's a special Christmas together that they'll never forget. (official distributor synopsis)
